Report provides update on Kulusevski and Richarlison returns for Spurs
The Evening Standard have reported that Dejan Kulusevski is hopeful of returning for Spurs before the World Cup break, while Richarlison is nearing a return to outdoor training.
Kulusevski picked up a hamstring injury during the last international break and has not been seen since. Richarlison, meanwhile, suffered a calf strain against his former side Everton in the Premier League.
The injuries to two of Tottenham’s forward players have put a strain on Antonio Conte’s squad, with Lucas Moura only just returning from a problem of his own and Heung-min Son now facing a spell on the sidelines.
One could argue that Harry Kane is now Tottenham’s only senior and fully match-fit forward, with Moura still building his fitness and young Bryan Gil limited to cameos.
However, the Standard report that Kulusevski and Richarlison may be able to return before the World Cup break, with Tottenham’s final match coming against Leeds United on November 12.
Spurs Web Opinion:
The returns themselves feel a little irrelevant now. Kulusevski and Richarlison are unlikely to be match-fit enough to influence Spurs on the pitch before the World Cup break, even if they do return. So it becomes about hoping they don’t aggravate their injuries by rushing back.
